Our Generation

Siblings

"You WHAT?!?!" I screamed my body shook I've never been this mad.

"You do know that he can't go back right?" I continued.

"I know but he will have the best life I can assure you of that" he had his hands clasped.

"Oh Lucius I know my family wasn't the Brady bunch or anything but we were a family...." He cut me off before I could finish.

"Do even know how he got here? Your father was beating on your mother and he was running away from home when we found him"

"He what" I stuttered " he promised that he wouldn't do that anymore" I whispered while looking down.

"Well your father has promised a lot of things" he spat I didn't know what that meant but whatever I had enough on my plate already.

"Can you just bring buddy here?" I asked.

"Yes i'll go get him right now" he hesitated at the door.

"What?" I said anxiously

"One more thing umm he knows all about you not being his sister and Jesse being his brother and you taking over so I'm not sure how he will react, just be prepared for everything"

I sighed nothing ever goes the way I want it to when something good happens something terrible replaces it, and I actually had hope. I've decided that if one thing was destroying me it would be hope.

Right then I heard the door open and Lucius came in behind Buddy. When I saw Buddy's face my heart broke. I stood up but buddy gasped and tried to turn.

"No don't hurt me" he screamed. He was desperately trying to around Lucius. I was shocked speechless.

I had no idea what to say.

I tried to say something to comfort him but no sound would come out. I may have thought that I've felt heartbreak but never like this it feels like a stick poking through my chest and stabbing my worn heart.

I fell to my knees in front of him and despite him struggling I grabbed his shoulders and pulled my little brother close. He cried and tried to get away at first but then he just collapsed into my arms and he let me hold him.

"I'll leave you guys alone" Lucius said while closing the door.

As soon as the door was shut Buddy really let it out.

"I'm s-so s-s-sorry Ahna I shouldn't have talked to that guy" he sobbed

"Oh buddy they would have gotten me anyway" I said through tears

"Dads hurting mom again" he sounded so defeated and he felt so small at that moment. I was wondering if this whole situation would be to much for him. How much stress can a ten year old take.

"I know buddy I know" I said while stroking his hair.

Me and buddy stayed like this for at least two hours till Lucius came in and said we had to eat. In those two hours I told Buddy everything he wanted to know about Jesse I mean they are brothers after all. But when I got to the conclusion Buddy opinion about his big brother changed greatly.

---------- Two hours later --------

"Whew, today has been way too long" I said to Lucius while climbing in bed.

"Well now that buddy's in bed and everything's been taken care of so we can just relax." He said.

"Lucius I've been thinking about something" I said quietly.

"And what is that love" I've grown to love his new nickname for me it gave me comfort when I needed it.

"I think that tomorrow I'm going to go see Jesse"

He rolled over immediately to stare at me. "What?" He snapped

"I never gave him a chance to explain and we left things kind of abrupt I think it's the right thing to do to tell him that were over"

"Why would you need to tell him that you two are over"

I sighed and bit my lip not knowing how to tell him this.

" whenever I'm around you whenever I touch you or you touch me it feels like I'm being dishonest, and don't get me wrong i love being around you I just want to break things off with him so when I'm with you I don't feel like I'm cheating on him" I breathed out.

He was silent for a while until he rolled on top of me resting his weight on his forearms.

"This feels dishonest" he said while stroking my cheek. I nodded just a little bit.

"So then this feels dishonest too" he leaned in and kissed me. I wrapped my arms around the back of his neck. He suddenly leaned up so I was clinging on to him. As the kiss got more intense I hadn't realized that we were falling off the bed and I guess he didn't either because we both landed on the cold wood floor only he broke my fall.

I could feel the smile on his lips, as we continued kissing but then I realized that buddy was just next door.

"We should stop we might wake

Buddy up"

"Fine but just think when we have our own kids they will be with us for eighteen years and surely you don't want to wait that long until you can kiss me again"

I slapped him on the chest playfully, then he stood up.

"Where are you going?" I cried.

"Back to bed" he laughed. I grabbed his leg and he began to fall only catching himself with his arms.

"What was that for" he said incredulously.

"We're sleeping down here" I said while pulling the blankets from the bed and wrapping them around us.

"Why" he said snuggling close to me.

"Just cause" I answered the truth is it feels so nice on the solid cold floor it felt better than the squishy heated bed and I know that may sound weird but sleeping like that you can really hurt your back.

I sighed as sleep began to overtake me I wasn't really ready for whatever is facing me with Jesse tomorrow but I have to get it over with
